QlikView access point "login failed" after upgrade.

[TanayModhe]

Hi There,

We recently upgraded our QA And Test environments from 12.40.20300 to May 2022 SR1. After upgrade, when we go to access point it shows login failed, but as soon as we click on cancel we are able to login and view access point..

Any one facing same issue or have any resolution for this.

Hello @TanayModhe ,

Thanks for posting.

What kind of authentication are you using? Are you using ticketing? I have seen some challenges with it after upgrading.

Cheers,

Albert

I have a similar issue on a freshly installed May 2022 SR1 environment.

I also found two persons with similar issues in this case: https://community.qlik.com/t5/App-Development/Can-not-use-Webticket-to-login-Server-12-4-update-to-1...

Hi @Albert_Candelario ,

Yes we are using web ticket, Do you have some kind of workaround or resolution for the issue.

Thanks,

Tanay

Hello @TanayModhe ,

I have seen a resolution has been provided on Solved: Can not use Webticket to login (Server 12.4 update... - Qlik Community - 1994377 by a community member.

Does this also work for you?

Cheers,

Hello all,

After investigation we have also found that adding the following setting in C:\Program Files\QlikView\Server\Web Server\QVWebServer.exe.config

<add key="StrictRedirection" value="false" />

In the <appsettings>….</appsettings>

Please make sure to take a backup of that file before and restart the QVWS service afterwards.

We are gathering the details in case IIS is used as webserver.

Hello all,

For IIS please edit the seetings of the IIS manager->QvAjaxZFC ->Application Settings->Explore->Web.config

<add key="StrictRedirection" value="false" />

In the <appsettings>….</appsettings>

Thanks @Filippo_Nicolussi_P

I can confirm that the StrictRedirection=False did solve the issue in my case.

An alternative way for setting that parameter is to do it in the IIS manager.

Go to Default Website -> QvAjaxZfc -> Application Settings

Create (or adjust) the StrictRedirection parameter.

Name: " StrictRedirection"

Value: "false"
